Brotherhood of the Hammer
Upon landing on the arid plains of Gaxis-3, the ramshackled ork transports spewed out bellowing hordes of greenskins. Their eyes fixed on two things – find loot and dakka to “enhance” their monstrous walkers and vehicles, and kill every single enemy they come across. Unbeknownst to them, the landing site was an ambush set up by the Brotherhood of the Hammer. Days of careful planning and cunning tactics made sure that the ork ships would land exactly where Chapter Master Ruthmir wanted them to be.
Missiles from Whirlwind tanks bombarded the ships and the ork hordes. Thousands were immediately decimated even as the orks took their first breath on the planet surface. Then landspeeders emerged, encircling those who attempt to escape the killzone and harrased the orks with heavy bolter fire. Ruthmir then personally led his space marines into the fray. Tactical squads marched methodically, firing at the orks that came at them. Ruthmir swatted orks that charged at him as if they were nothing but flies, his eyes focused toward his quarry – Gitzstompa Da Red.
